Green Bay, Wis. — Hinterland Brewery and Restaurant recently broke ground on its new home, as part of the new Titletown District adjacent to Lambeau Field. The award-winning brewery and restaurant will move from its current downtown Green Bay location in the spring of 2017. The new, 24,000 square foot Hinterland building will include bars, restaurants and event spaces.

The event was celebrated with cases of Hinterland Groundbreaker, a beer that was specially created for the occasion.

“This is a big day for us,” said Bill Tressler, owner and creator of Hinterland artisanal brewery, “Hinterland was born from a pioneering spirit that has certainly taken us on a colorful journey. My wife, Michelle, and I have been brewing for over 21 years and this will be our third location. From a rented cheese factory in Denmark, WI, we moved to our current location in 1999 with founding Brewmaster, Joe Karls. Today we’re pushing the boundaries again and are off on our next adventure.”

Being Green Bay natives, the Tresslers’ ties to the city are only strengthened by the new location. “Imagine tasting one of our small-batch craft beers against the backdrop of Hinterland and the stadium,” Tressler added, “We originally chose the name ‘Hinterland’ because it means a place untraveled and unknown. That’s where I want to take people with our craft beer and our food to a place they haven’t yet been, but once they do, they feel they have found home.”

While maintaining the urban lodge feel of their current restaurant, the new Hinterland location promises to welcome guests with an experience like no other. The plans will accommodate guests in any season offering a fireside escape from harsh Wisconsin winters or a place to sip Hinterland beer in the summer beer garden. The new space and menus will also create a destination that’s not only accessible to friends and families of all ages, but also to the serious craft beer connoisseur. Daily brewery tours will give both locals and tourists insight into Hinterland’s history and passion for beer.

The vision for the Titletown District was announced last August by Packers President/CEO Mark Murphy. In addition to the new Hinterland Brewery and Restaurant, the Titletown District development will include a public plaza and further opportunities for entertainment.

“We are thrilled that Hinterland is a part of the plans for the development,” said Murphy, “They are a quality organization and we know they will bring many people to the district.”

With locations in downtown Green Bay and Milwaukee, Hinterland Brewery and Restaurant inspires customers to taste beyond their boundaries through a wide selection of handcrafted beers and unique contemporary American cuisine with multicultural influences.
